Arrest – Burglary, Theft, Distribution of CDS (Heroin) in Newton

On 9/23/14 at 8:11a.m., Newton Police received a report of a burglary to a motor vehicle which was parked at a residence on Cedar Street. The owner of the vehicle reported that a credit card was stolen from the vehicle’s interior. Investigation revealed that the credit card in question was already used at several locations, most recently, the Newton Rite-Aid on Spring Street minutes earlier. As a result, police responded to Rite-Aid and an employee identified the actor using the card as Robert Davis. While police were present at the store, Davis returned and attempted to use the stolen credit card in the ATM machine but it declined his transaction. Davis was taken into custody and the stolen card was retained.

While in custody, Davis also admitted to a previous burglary of a motor vehicle within the Rite Aid parking lot that occurred on 9/22/14 at approximately 9:45 a.m. in which a purse containing a cell-phone was stolen from a customer’s unlocked motor vehicle.
